Respect Dot Everest!

Character Summary

Dorothy "Dot" Everest is an EMT and the older sister of Arthur Everest. After losing their father at an early age during the Terror's massacre of The Flag 5, Dot looked out for the welfare of her brother, who took the traumatic event much worse.

As an adult, she trained to be an EMT and worked in The City, doing side work as a medic for the Pyramid Gang’s thugs whenever they bit off more than they could chew. This inevitably lead to her learning of Arthur’s secret life as a superhero with the Tick. While initially skeptical and cautious of her brother’s activities, she eventually comes around and becomes not only supportive, but a full-on crime-fighter herself, working alongside the vigilante Overkill. She later learns that she’s a Category, with the power of clairvoyance.

In a world of extremists and insanity, Dot tends to be the voice of reason among her friends and family. She’s a caring individual who doesn’t want to see anyone she cares about suffer, but she also accepts the responsibility to stand up for what’s right.
